I'm placing this table of "current times" on the talk page, pending clarification from Tim Starling. It's only good through 12/31/2006 anyway.

Time Zone	Standard Time	Daylight Time
Chamorro	+10 hours (07:31)	n/a
Atlantic	−4 hours (17:31)	n/a
U.S. Eastern	−5 hours	−4 hours (17:31)
U.S. Central	−6 hours	−5 hours (16:31)
U.S. Mountain	−7 hours	−6 hours (15:31)
Arizona	−7 hours (14:31)	n/a
U.S. Pacific	−8 hours	−7 hours (14:31)
Alaska	−9 hours	−8 hours (13:31)
Aleutian	−10 hours	−9 hours (12:31)
Hawaii	−10 hours (11:31)	n/a
Samoa	−11 hours (10:31)	n/a

On second thought, it seems okay. I'm going to incorporated it, unless Tim finds that it slows down the server. --Uncle Ed 16:47, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Can this be extended to cover all the worlds time zones? Not everybody lives in the USA.--Tivedshambo (talk) 06:54, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Accuracy?

The "This page was served on (current time) UTC doesn't seem to be accurate. Actually, it doesn't even seem to be changing when I refresh the page. I've cleared my cache and cookies, also. I think it either should be fixed or removed. 76.245.44.228 (talk) 04:59, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Looks like the wikipedia page updates in batches. This table should be replaced with something that doesn't cleverly try to update the time. Other non-american time zones can be added at that point. DavidRF (talk) 20:37, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
